Chapter 719: Profound Golden Soul
The atmosphere was crackling with animosity as both sides remained silent. They were glaring at each other, waiting for the right opportunity.
Long Chen was speechless. He had already prepared his plan, and Aunt Snow was about to uproot the Martial God Tombstone. The arrival of the two elders from the Gold clan had been too sudden.
If Aunt Snow were to go and uproot the tombstone, she would be attacked by them. She had abandoned all thoughts of uprooting it for the moment as she faced the elders along with Feng Zhilin. The other people from the Wind clan were too weak to help. Long Chen was even weaker, so he was on the sidelines.
Feng Zhilin had ignited the gunpowder in the air with her sharp tongue.
She hated how the two elders looked down on her and said, “Since you are here, stop trying to weasel your way out and fight us. Words are cheap here. Power dictates everything. Aunt Snow, we will each fight one of them!”
Feng Zhilin seized the initiative and appeared directly in front of the two elders. Her golden skirt trailed in the air like a fairy.
“Young miss!” Aunt Snow was left speechless by the arrogant Feng Zhilin’s actions. She quickly moved forward to block one of the elders.
The other people from the Wind clan surrounded the Martial God Tombstone to prevent anyone else from taking it during the fight.The two elders from the Gold clan looked at each other and smiled before they each met their opponents.
Feng Zhilin moved to the side to give space for Aunt Snow to fight while one of the elders followed her.
“Little girl, I can’t believe that your grandfather allowed you to run out without any security. Let me play with you for a moment,” the old man said lecherously as he looked at her attractive face.
Feng Zhilin smiled, but her smile was filled with coldness and cruelty.
She had met many people like the elder. All of them had paid with their lives.
The fight broke out instantly. One of them attacked Feng Zhilin while the other was still glaring at Aunt Snow.
The two elders were almost two hundred years old and had a deep connection with each other as twins. Aunt Snow, on the other hand, was one of the stronger fighters at the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage. Feng Zhilin, on the other hand, was a young girl and appeared to be an easier foe. As long as they captured her, it would be easy to blackmail Aunt Snow. It would then be an easy matter to take the Martial God Tombstone.
The other elder was glaring at Aunt Snow. Even though he was old, his lust was still strong. He looked at the sexy Aunt Snow with a perverted look.
Jin Xiong had already started his fight with Feng Zhilin.
“The Gold clan’s Molten Gold Combat Body? And already at the Second Stage?” Feng Zhilin smirked.
Jin Xiong’s body was covered in a flowing sheet of gold light. This was the second stage of the Molten Gold Combat Body in which a suit of armor made of gold was formed. It would increase the user’s attack and defense drastically.
“So you do know about this technique!” Jin Xiong smiled and became a golden whirlwind. He launched a mighty punch at Feng Zhilin. It contained the essence of someone at the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage as well as the second stage of the Molten Gold Combat Body. It was an attack far beyond what Zhao Danchen could use.
Boom, boom, boom!
The air ripped apart from the punch. Even space itself was distorted slightly.
Incredible! The Gold clan should be specialized in strength and defense. Zhao Danchen was very strong, but he was probably not a pure-blooded Gold clan member. He didn’t have the mark on his forehead.
Long Chen’s goal was the Martial God Tombstone. He was ready to spring into action at any moment!
The more chaotic it was, the better his chances were!
He was interested in seeing how strong Feng Zhilin was.
He soon witnessed her strength. Feng Zhilin was so fast that Long Chen could barely keep up. She used a Body Combat Technique that appeared to be the higher-ranked version of the Willow Step, but she used it so masterfully that her body had become a willow leaf itself! All eight punches of Jin Xiong missed!
“Little girl, do you only know how to run?” Jin Xiong spat hatefully. He wanted to capture her, but she was like an eel that was dancing just barely out of his grasp.
As he punched again and again, the air rippled with golden light. But none of his attacks hit her, which drove him crazy. It was humiliating!
“Little girl, stop running. Show me that the Wind clan can use techniques that aren’t for escaping! You are just a lower clan that is allied with the Divine clan. Do you really think of yourself as one of the Nine Great Clans?”
The Wind clan’s sore point was being told that they were the slaves of the Divine clan. After numerous years, the Wind clan had gotten much stronger than before. Even though they weren’t as strong as the Divine clan, they were at least comparable to them a little. Jin Xiong was so arrogant that even Feng Zhilin leaked out her murderous intent.
Her bloodlust was frightening!
Feng Zhilin was trying to buy more time, but she fell for his taunt. She suddenly moved and transformed into a wind blade, flying towards Jin Xiong!
Fast! She was too fast!
The wind blade was two meters long and filled with azure light. Her body was hidden inside it.
“The Wind clan’s advanced King-tier martial technique, Wind Blade?” Jin Xiong squinted. He became serious because Feng Zhilin’s Wind Blade was much faster than he had anticipated. The Wind clan was famous for their speed, and speed was strength. Her Wind Blade was undoubtedly powerful.
Jin Xiong didn’t have time to think—the Wind Blade was right in front of him before he knew it. Even with the Molten Gold Combat Body’s protection, he felt the wind blowing so hard that his face became numb.
What a good chance! She wants to clash with me head-on! Jin Xiong was secretly happy and started circulating his essence. A golden essence flowed into his right finger. When his finger was glowing, he pointed it at the Wind Blade.
“Gold Dragon Departure!”
It was a powerful technique that condensed all of his strength into a single point. The power behind it was unimaginable!
The illusion of a dragon appeared and crashed into the Wind Blade. The two colossal forces of nature exploded, causing azure and gold energy to scatter everywhere. Even the sturdy metal walls were bent slightly.
The explosion was intense!
Everyone was staring at them anxiously while Jin Ba was facing Aunt Snow. Feng Zhilin rarely fought, so no one knew how strong she was.
The Wind clan was renowned for their speed, but the Gold clan was renowned for their strength. As expected, Feng Zhilin had to retreat even though she was unharmed. But surprisingly, Jin Xiong was blown back by the strong wind, spinning in the air. He was unharmed though.
But as an older cultivator, this was humiliating!
“Brother, stop holding back! Use your full strength,” Jin Ba reminded his brother.
Jin Xiong steadied himself and looked at Feng Zhilin with shock. He gritted his teeth when he heard Jin Ba. “Fine!”
He opened his arms and legs, and golden energy condensed onto his body.
With a whoosh, a golden stone appeared from his chest and floated upwards. It was a purely golden stone with irregular shape, roughly the size of a person’s heart. The golden stone was covered densely with golden runes.
What is that? Long Chen was surprised to find that the golden stone exuded a dense metal energy.
Everyone else was shocked by it too.
“Is that the Gold clan’s Profound Golden Soul?” One of the onlookers recognized it.
“Profound Golden Soul? Feng Zhilin is destined to lose once he uses it!” one of the men from the Wind clan exclaimed.
